You need to go inside the latest Ti installer (from their website if you are registered) and extract the file 'firmware.bin'. I used Pacifist for this (a Mac programme)

Kymeia

Added 2 draft templates to The Usual Suspects folder for OsTirus - a simple one based on the Easy access page and a more in depth one

No graphics etc yet - these are for testing. Also I chose not to add the fx that rely on audio input for now as I don't think that is available yet (so also not the Vocoder)

So I have made some graphics at least for the mk2 keyboard, however I used official logos instead of the DSP56300 dev designs. Enjoy!

You added graphics to @Kymeia 's work?

Sunborn

Thanks @Kymeia for the full template and @Diam for the graphics! 😉

One mistake to be fixed though, dist_database/categories, vendor is Ususal instead of Usual 😊

Diam

Thanks @Sunborn. Fixed.

Yep! Used original TI logos though.

Thanks! 😎

Draft template created for Xenia - the new Waldorf Microwave 2/XT Emulation (which sounds amazing)

This is in very early beta (or maybe not even that) so is not complete and also buggy - for example it doesn't report param states to the host so you get param jumps changing patches

Graphics are incomplete

Diam

Thanks. I made some resources for this third party discord skin. Thought to share for anybody who follows this project.

If I save presets for this, would you want them to be named with the bank number or without and what about multiple space in names?

"A001 CS-80_____T&WMF"

or just

"CS-80_____T&WMF"

or even

"CS-80 T&WMF"

Thanks but I would hold off a while. It’s not even in beta yet and not feature complete.

Kymeia

OK they released new betas yesterday but it looks like it still has a lot to be added

Here are the three factory banks with previews (1997, 1998 and 2000), a bit of tagging and using Kymeia's layout (thanks). I only included the non-duplicated sounds that from older banks. There are about 475 presets.

Also, some resources; the first link below are all the official presets, and the second link are a bunch more:

That's amazing bro. Just checking out some presets now. Must have taken a good while to categorise that stuff too. Much appreciated @jggorman !!!
